Lucifer may have captured me

Yesterday morning I awoke with a scratchy throat, coughing every time I spoke. By evening my nose was running like a spring and my eyes were blurry with water. This morning Lucifer had more in store for me. Aching muscles added to yesterday's woes. Every few minutes my computer screen appears to get a watery curtain. I already finished off one box Kleenex. I was reluctant to take a cough and cold suppressant for fear of counteraction against my heart and stroke medication. But my wife would have none of it and this is what she gave me:

Two hours have passed with no perceptible relief. I shall ask God to punish Lucifer for imposing this misery on me. Y'all must mek sure yuh don't get flu, eh. Walk in the corner.

I believe in the flu shot, it really helps. Because of the mild weather , the flu season lasted much longer than expected, normally the season lasts for three months. I had a short experience with the flu about ten days ago, it lasted five days, drink lots of hot tea, honey and lemon and at night use vicks vapor rub, also use a saline nasal spray for clogged nose and last of all take lots of rest. Feel good soon.

Thanks, kp. Since I suffered my stroke three years ago I stopped taking flu shots. I chew Vitamin C tablets daily for years now but this time the firewall broke down.

Chicken soup helps. They say there are compounds in it that makes you feel better and then it is also easier on the throat.

Feel better soonest.

Thanks, guys. With 5 months more to my 65th birthday, I've been assaulted with a few health challenges lately, causing me to wonder if I'll make it. I don't want to go into the details. Anyway, I shall take a rest now and shall be back here by evening. No fighting on Political for me today.
